Right to withdraw consent
If you have given us consent to process your data, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawing your consent, however, does not mean that the processing of your personal data before the withdrawal was unlawful.

Right of access
You have the right to obtain confirmation as to whether or not personal data concerning you is being processed, and, where that is the case, you have the access to said personal data.

Right to rectification
You have the right to rectify inaccurate personal data that concerns you. You also have the right to have incomplete data completed, taking into account the purposes of the processing.

You have the right to obtain restriction of processing where one of the following applies:

The accuracy of the personal data is contested by you, in which case we will pause the processing of your data until we have verified the accuracy of your personal data;

We do no longer need your personal data for the purposes of the processing, but you require us to store the data for purposes of establishing, exercising or defending a legal claim;

Right to object
If the processing of your data is based on a legitimate interest of RSM, you have the right to object said processing on grounds relating to your particular situation. We will no longer process your personal data unless we demonstrate compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override your interests, rights and freedoms or unless we have the need for the data for the establishment, exercise or defense of legal claims.

In case of an execution of the right to object, we will weigh your interests against our own interests or those of relevant third parties.

Right to data portability
Insofar that RSM processes your data (by automated means) based on your consent or to execute a contract we have with you, you have the right to receive the data that you have provided to us in a structured, commonly used and machine-readable format. You may also request us to transfer the data to another controller directly.

However, if you have any issues, questions or remarks regarding the processing of your data by RSM, please do not hesitate to contact us first. We take your privacy seriously and would like to hear from you.
